(download)

Last night's dinner is one of my go to favorite meals. The great things about it is that it is super delicious, not bad health-wise and wicked easy.

2 T Olive Oil
1 T butter
3-5 garlic cloves, chopped
1 medium leek or shallot, chopped
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
12-20 shrimp, de-veined and skins peeled
Angel Hair Pasta or Spinach Fettucini
Grated Parmesan

In a medium saucepan over med-high heat add butter and olive oil until butter is melted. Add leeks and garlic. Saute until aromatic - about five minutes. Add tomatoes. Cook for 10 - 15 minutes. Add shrimp and cover. Shrimp usually take 6 minutes or so depending on the size. You will know they are done when they start to curl and become a beautiful coral/rosy color. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package instructions.
Place angel hair/fettucini on plates and pour shrimp mixture over the pasta. Top with fresh grated Parmesan.
